<h1 class="topictitle1"> Verify a move</h1>
<div><p>By creating a move policy, you can optionally choose to have BRMS
automatically verify media movement or you can choose to manually verify the
move.</p>
<div class="section"><p>When you create a move policy, you are asked if you want to verify
the actions that take place when the move policy runs-- what volumes move
where and when. Verifying moves keeps BRMS synchronized with what actually
happens.</p>
<p>You can choose to manually verify moves, or you can have BRMS
automatically verify moves. Because you need to be sure that your media is
where BRMS says it is, it is recommended that you verify moves manually at
first. You may choose to have BRMS verify moves automatically once your media
movement procedures are established and have been working smoothly for some
time.</p>
<p>To manually verify a move using iSeries™ Navigator, follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<ol><li><span>Right-click <span class="uicontrol">Move Policies</span> and select <span class="uicontrol">Verify
Moves</span>. You will see a table of all volumes of media currently
scheduled to be moved. For each volume listed, the table columns display the
current location, the next location the volume is moving to, the move date,
as well as the name of the move policy the volume is associated with.</span></li>
<li><span>Contact the storage location by phone or e-mail to ensure that
the media has arrived at the location.</span></li>
<li><span>Select the volumes you want to verify and click <span class="uicontrol">Verify</span>.</span></li>
</ol>
<div class="section"><p>If you opt to have BRMS verify moves automatically, no action is
required on your part to verify moves. When the date and time of the move
passes, BRMS will automatically update the information about that media. In
addition, BRMS will print a media movement report when you run or schedule
the move policy.</p>
<div class="important"><span class="importanttitle">Important:</span> Remember that if you verify moves
automatically, BRMS will update the information about the media whether the
physical move of the volume takes place or not. If the move does not take
place, the information in the BRMS database will not be accurate.</div>
